And is that a good thing?! Most people prefer to
chlorinate their pools to prevent such hideous things
but heh....what ever floats your u-boat Swamp Thing!

If I ever find myself stuck at the bottom of a lake in
a propane tank full of algae... it will be because I
have been the victim of a mob hit!!!! Also,  if the
lamps go out, the light reactions cease and the algae
can no longer excite electrons stripped from H20 and
release 02 (in Photosystem II). So you are only going
to be alive as long as those batteries anyway! You are
going to have to maintain temperature, light,
nutrients, and circulation of air. Sounds like it
could be more trouble than it is worth.

HEY GUYS! I HAVE A GREAT IDEA FOR SOME DIVE LIGHTS
THAT USE BIOLUMINESCENT BACTERIA!!!!
hahahahahahaahahahaahahahah!
